Solomon and the Magic Carpet!
Picture this: a so-called king of wisdom zipping through the clouds on a whimsical magic carpet, defying gravity and logic like something out of Arabian Nights. Not a harmless kids’ story, mind you—this is the Quran’s miraculous tall tale about Prophet Solomon (Sulayman), peddled as divine truth by Islam’s apologists. At its core lies the absurd magic carpet, a gift from Allah where the wind magically morphs into a flying rug, ferrying Solomon and his crew across vast distances in hours. This fantastical yarn, ripped from pre-Islamic folklore and repackaged as revelation, fools the gullible while screaming fraud. It’s a glaring red flag of Islam’s satanic deception, blending pagan myths with spiritual gaslighting to hook the naive and enslave minds.
The Quranic Foundation of Solomon’s Magic Carpet: Smoke and Mirrors
Islam’s holy book pulls out all stops to sell this nonsense. In Surah Saba (34:12), Allah supposedly boasts: And to Solomon [We subjected] the wind—its morning [journey was that of] a month, and its afternoon [journey was that of] a month. Apologists twist this into the wind forming a magic carpet that zips from Damascus to Persepolis (ancient Istakhr) faster than a caffeinated camel. A month’s trek on horseback? No sweat for Sulayman’s breeze chariot! Tafsir hacks claim it cradles humans, animals, and breakables like a feather bed, all while hurricane-force winds play nice.
Then Surah Al-Anbiya (21:81) piles on: And to Solomon [We subjected] the wind, blowing forcefully, proceeding by his command toward the land We had blessed. Conquest on a magic carpet? Sure, why not! Surah Sad (38:36) chimes in: So We subjected to him the wind blowing by his command, gently wherever he directed. It’s a laughable collage of wind-whispering wizardry, symbolizing nothing but Muhammad’s fevered imagination borrowing from Jewish legends and Persian tales. Where’s the evidence? Crickets. This magic carpet myth exposes the Quran as a patchwork plagiarism, not prophecy—a satanic sleight-of-hand to dazzle desert dwellers into submission.
Ibn Kathir’s Tafsir: Exposing the Magic Carpet Farce
Enter Ismail ibn Kathir, Islam’s go-to exegete whose Tafsir is worshipped like gospel. On Surah Saba (34:12), he spins that Allah turned wind into Solomon’s personal magic carpet, hauling family, troops, and tents across continents. Citing Ibn Abbas, he paints the wind as a Jekyll-and-Hyde beast: raging fury one moment, silken pillow the next. Covering a month’s journey in a morning? Ibn Kathir drools over it, contrasting it with sweaty riders battling dunes and dehydration.
But let’s dissect this drivel. Ibn Kathir ties it to Solomon’s magic ring etched with Allah’s Greatest Name, granting jinn control and wind-riding superpowers. Practical uses? Storming tyrants or air-dropping aid—convenient plot devices for a fictional hero. Muhammad Ali as-Sabuni’s condensed version dumbed it down for the masses, but it reeks of the same stench: desperate defense of delusion.
This isn’t scholarship; it’s circular sorcery. Ibn Kathir recycles weak hadiths and fantasies, propping up a magic carpet that’s pure fiction. Compare to the Bible’s real Solomon—wise builder, no flying rugs. Islam’s version? A cartoonish upgrade to outshine Judaism, courtesy of Satan’s scriptwriter. Wake up: this magic carpet is the thread unraveling Islam’s credibility.
Unraveling the Absurd Feats of the Magic Carpet
Ibn Kathir gushes about hair staying perfectly coiffed mid-flight—no turbulence, no spills. Birds fly alongside unscathed? Please. This defies physics, aerodynamics, and common sense. A month’s journey in hours implies supersonic speeds on a fabric-of-air platform. Modern jets struggle with that; ancient winds don’t obey voice commands. It’s not miracle—it’s Muhammad mooning over One Thousand and One Nights, plagiarizing Sassanid and Talmudic scraps to fabricate proof of his prophethood.
Other Scholarly Perspectives on the Magic Carpet: Desperate Defenses
Shaykh ‘Atfiyyish in Hiyan az-Zad ila Dar al-Ma‘ad (on Surah Al-Anbiya 21:81) doubles down: wind rises like a genie at Solomon’s whistle, weaving an airy magic carpet rug, landing pinpoint-accurate. Gentleness supreme—no queasy stomachs, safe for fowl. Abu Bakr al-Jaza’iri’s Aysar at-Tafasir (Surah Sad 38:34) insists directional mastery, gently blowing (lawwaha) to spare harm, backed by flimsy hadiths.
These clowns claim exclusivity: Moses’ staff, Jesus’ heals, Solomon’s magic carpet—tailored toys from Allah. Dispelling misconceptions? They’re inventing them! The magic carpet was for just rule over jinn, birds, beasts? More like a prop for Islamic imperialism, masking conquest as piety.
Collectively, these tafsirs scream fraud. No archaeology, no eyewitnesses—just medieval mental gymnastics. Islam steals Solomon’s grandeur, bloats it with sorcery, and brands critics infidels. Satan’s playbook: dazzle with magic, demand blind faith.
Spiritual Lessons from Solomon’s Magic Carpet: Lessons in Deception
Peel back the glitter, and the magic carpet preaches poison. Solomon’s gratitude? He prays in Surah Sad (38:35): My Lord, forgive me and grant me a kingdom such as will not belong to anyone after me. Humble? Nah—greedy power-hoarder, amplified by his rug for da’wah (forced conversion tours).
Islamic tradition counters materialism with piety porn, likening it to eco-friendly jets. Emission-free? Prayer-activated? Spare me. True power is Allah’s—or so they chant while ignoring the farce. This myth grooms believers for submission: accept flying carpets on faith, swallow Sharia next.
Real lesson? Islam’s magic carpet is a Trojan horse for tyranny. It mocks science, breeds superstition, and veils violence. Muhammad, no prophet but plagiarist, conjured this to compete with Bible heroes, deceiving 1.8 billion into satanic servitude. Reject it, reclaim reason.
Modern Parallels Expose the Magic Carpet Hoax
Today’s drones and planes? Earned through ingenuity, not incantations. Islam’s rug? A Luddite fantasy stifling progress—why innovate when Allah airlifts? From Taliban tech-phobia to oil-rich indolence, the magic carpet mentality persists, dooming ummah to medieval mire while West soars.
Why the Magic Carpet Proves Islam’s Satanic Fraud
Borrowed from Zoroastrian winds and Jewish demons (Asmodeus tales), Muhammad’s magic carpet seals Islam’s scam. No historicity—Solomon’s era yields zilch on flying kings. Quran’s inimitable beauty? Childish drivel. Tafsirs like Ibn Kathir’s? Damage control for doubting doubters.
This satanic swindle thrives on illiteracy and fear: question the magic carpet, burn in hell. Billions buy it, funding mosques and madrassas spewing hate. Expose it: Islam isn’t faith—it’s fable factory, Satan’s carpet ride to perdition.
Ditch the delusion. Read real history, science, Bible. Solomon was wise; Muhammad, wizard of lies. The magic carpet? Ultimate unraveling of Allah’s emperor fraudulence.
